Kanzashi Flowers

Just made some Kanzashi flowers. They are fun to make and go rather quickly once you get the hang of it. The red flower is velvet, the black is polyester and the three flowers are made of cotton. I will be making more and putting them on my Etsy shop with my roses.
Have a great evening.

My New Etsy Store!!!!!

Hi ladies,I have just opened a new Etsy Shop. Hopefully I have done every thing right. I have been making these scarves with Can Can yarn for holiday gift giving. These are offered on my new Etsy shop. I have a few different multi colors, blues, rusts, pinks and cranberry.These scarves are 62" in length and very pretty. They are fashionable but warm without bulk!!! When I wear one, I always have someone stop me and ask where I bought it!!
As I find more colors, I will let you know.
I will be adding many of my rose flowers, and my crepe flowers.

ATC Fridge Magnets

Happy Friday ladies. Just finished up some ATC's for an upcoming vendor event I am doing. Thought they would be nice "small gifts" to give to a co-worker. I included some words of inspiration on the cards. many are about friendship. If they sell well, iIwill make more.
It is quite chilly here in Connecticut. I am going to the ScrapStamp Expo in Rhinebeck,NY tomorrow and it is difficult to know what to wear. Hope it warms up a little.
I am planning on revamping my studio next week. I am trying to get organized and utilize all of the space as best I can. This should be fun. My husband already told me he will be busy that day.(Funny, I have not told him what day I will be organizing)
Have a great weekend everyone!

Great News

Happy Tuesday to you all. I have been finishing up three samples to be sent to Heartfelt Creations for consideration for the Design Team. I am hoping I get the chance to be considered for their design team. I am sure the competition will be tough. This is my favorite company and has been for several years. I am honored to be considered. If you have not been to their web site, go and sign up. They have a wonderful selection of unique stamps and some of their dies are designed by Spellbinders exclusively for Heartfelt Creations.
I received an email from Sarah Murphy at DIY or Dont, that I was selected for their design team. Sarah was very kind with her compliments. I will be joining four other talented ladies and we will be submitting tutorials every week for various techniques. Sign up for their blog and keep up with all of the unique samples that will be submitted

Saturdays Projects

Good afternoon friends. I am working on about 10 projects at a time. This picture is of my paint container holding my bottle cap earrings, key chains and necklaces. Trying to get all this together on as few displays is maddening. I also have a lot of "Kids" key rings that I want to bring, so that attaches on the other side. My dominos are going to be displayed on a Stampin Up Board that I will have to take along.
I am working on submitting 3 projects for a designer call that went out Tuesday. I am hoping that I will be accepted. That would be a great feather in my cap. I also got a great response from another company and I am awaiting to hear the criteria for their design team. They loved my designs.
I also started knitting scarves for Christmas.I hope to sell some and give some as gifts.
Keep me in your prayers for good news!!!!! Thanks

A Merry Christmas Magnet Board

Happy Tuesday my friends.
This is the last of my magnet boards. I just have to decorate the magnets and I will be done. These will be displayed at my first Bazaar.
I am still working on my dominos and finishing up the final touches for my vendor events. I start in Oct. Sounds far away, but it will be here before you know it. I also started with some bottle cap jewlery for the kids. This is out of my comfort zone, but I had over two hundred caps and decided it was time to do something with them. If any of my followers know what young teen girls like, please let me know. I know about Justin Bieber but I am lost as to what else girls like, and follow. Thanks for being patient with my not blogging last week. There just was no time at the end of the day.

The last two weeks

Hi friends. I did not want you to think I left the planet. I have had two busy weeks with house projects and fulfilling orders that need to be put to bed.
I have been in the studio and will have some updates this week.
I painted two rooms in the house, boy I am not as young as I used to be. What used to take one day, took 3. Then some excitement with the grandchildren. One broke his ankle and starts a new private school this week No football for him. My grandaughter was taken to the ER with what they thought was a gallblader attack. Still getting info on that. I was busy making special good luck cards for all four for the first day of school. My youngest grandaughter started kindergarden. Oh my, where did the time go.
Will be back with you on Tuesday. Hope you all have a wonderful Labor Day!!!!!
